Watch out, it doesn't catch duplicates... at least not that I can see! I submitted a bug twice to test the error reporter and both these bugs are dups and the same:
So do a search first for now before you submit it automatically. It's a little easier to find the bugs though since the stack trace will be in the body of the message, so search for words in the first 2 lines.

It does catch a lot of duplicates, but those two seem to be too different. They end the same way but one of them has a dozen additional lines in the middle.
I've also seen duplicates where recursion is used -- one of the traces contains 5 recursive calls before the bug is triggered while the other one contains 8 calls, or something like that.

Hum that's interesting, I didn't really see that, so what happens if you do get a duplicate? Does it tell you it's been reported?
